Horizon view
Horizon from Leucippus X
33.1778° N, 119.2586° W · cell 8SFF
- Highest horizon point
- Leucippus X: 10.3° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 329°.
- Farthest visible point
- 37.0 km away at azimuth 113°, 3.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 579 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 51.3° under it at azimuth 40°. At 2026-10-22 18:36:15 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
